Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 1151
Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Crystalâs POV:
I got in Rufusâ car and it drove slowly away from the imperial palace. I felt strange and uneasy, so I frequently turned my head to look at Rufus who was resting with his eyes closed.
Rufus seemed to have noticed my gaze, so he rubbed my hair. He had behaved intimately towards me like this more than once in the past two days.
Title of the document
There were questions on my mind, but 1 kept quiet. The thought of my son sprang to mind.
Rufus opened his eyes, glanced at me, and said, âThe groom confessed that he had secretly hidden Arron in a garbage truck and transferred him out of the imperial palace before it was locked down.â The person behind this obviously wanted him to kill Arron. But, the manâs greed led him to discreetly make contact with a human trafficker. He was hoping to make a quick buck by selling Arron.â
My stomach dropped again when I learned about the human trafficker. I had hoped that the groomâs confession meant my son was out of harmâs way, but instead my baby boy had fallen into the hands of a human trafficker âThen, we have to hurry up. Human traffickers are usually very cautious. Theyâll probably use a bunch of go between to make the deal. If we are late, we might not find Arron at all.â Anxious, 1 reached for Rufusâ sleeves absentmindedly.
Rufus sat up straight, held on to my trembling shoulders and reassuringly remarked, âDonât worry. Iâve sent my soldiers to the base of the traffickers. Arron should be safe now.â
After saying that, he paused and looked at me seriously. âI think you will want to bring Arron back in person, and thatâs why Iâm taking you with me.â
I really appreciated Rufus. I knew that I shouldnât have made such a big scene at Lucyâs place. And he must have heard of it, so he came to prevent me from making any more mistakes.
If Rufus didnât come today, Lucy would probably have been dead. It would be too late to make up for it.
âThank you, Rufus. I would probably never find Anon if it werenât for you.â
Many werewolf children went missing or were abducted every year, and only a small fraction of them were found back. If it werenât for Rufusâ, perhaps Arron would be one of those lost kids.
Hearing my gratitude, Rufus leaned back in his seat and said in a lazy and elegant manner, âDonât say that now.
When we get Anon back, I still have a lot of scores to settle with you.â
I didnât retort and instead stammered, âAs long as Arron comes back safely, 1 will do anything. I will answer for all the reckless things I have done.â Rufus snorted and closed his eyes again. Looking at his handsome face, I suddenly thought of something and asked, âDoes Laura know that Arron is in the hands of human traffickers? Do we need to tell her?â When Anon had gone missing, Laura grew very anxious that her b***d pressure had risen again.
Rufus coughed and said in a hoarse voice, âIâve told her already. Donât worry about it.â
Rufus didnât look good. 1 figured it might be because of his wound, so I was worried. âYou donât look well. Did you catch a cold or have a headache? Do you need me to massage your head?â
Rufus coughed again and teased, âItâs rare to see you care about me so much. Donât worry I just havenât had a good rest the past few days. You wonât have to worry about me, Alpha Crystal.â
1 laughed awkwardly, realizing that I was being reckless. I had treated Rufus as my lover five years ago without realizing it.
A long silence then filled the car. fortunately, we arrived at the destination soon.
